Many Christians are finding themselves wrestling with difficult questions or deep doubts about their Christian faith. In the face of this, there tend to be two extreme reactions:

• Some choose to simply bury, ignore, or deny these doubts and questions.
• Others take the road of skeptical agnosticism and decide that since there are so many doubts and questions, true belief isn’t even a realistic goal, so what’s the point?

In this series, we want to provide you with a guide to help you successfully navigate questions and doubts about the Christian faith and help others to do the same.

In this introductory podcast episode, Scott and Shawn talk about

• What exactly is faith deconstruction and how is it related to deconversion?
• What is Progressive Christianity?
• What are the essentials of the Christian faith and how do we determine who's right about them?
